>tfw it just hit me the reason I'm so autistic about tracking every anime episode I watch, book, I read, every video game I play etc. is because I've been a NEET for 6 years and seeing my number of watched anime or played games increase is the only sense of progression my life has
I think this also explains why I give up on exercising and eating right so often too, among other things. It's because without being able to see immediate, tangible progression I lose all motivation to stick with something. I wish humans had stats like in an RPG so I could see exactly what my levels are in any given field. Now that I'm aware of this subconscious problem, what do I do to fix it?

quantify everything in your life just like you have done with anime and books
set milestones and make your own level progressions

get another hobby, loser. if you're gonna try escapism, confine it to the real world, so you don't go insane, because no social interaction + make believe escapism = chris chan
